Start-Up Staffing Challenge
๏ Quickly evolving idea behind the business requires to be elaborated and executed
quickly... but the start-up misses employees and has a lack of skills; it has to
attract new employees quickly without a deep knowledge of the local job market
๏ The pool of employees willing to accept risks and start working for the start-up is
limited; they usually work for the start-up or develop products on themselves
๏ The start-up has the idea, but it has no skills to hire new employees. It has no
name on the job market, no one knows that the new company hires and has
interesting job openings
๏ Most start-up founders have no clear idea what jobs they need to run the
company successfully ... they look for universal soldiers, which are a scarce
resource on the job market
๏ The start-up company offers a lot of adventures, but it offers a lot of the
uncertainty, as well
๏ Start-up company cannot use the benefits of the internal recruitment, it has to
hire all new employees externally
๏ Finally, it has no the recruitment strategy and it has no knowledge of the best
performing recruitment sources for the company
